We’ve been pushing smaller, more frequent updates to Lightstream to get fixes and improvements out faster. We’re switching up our changelog format to reflect the change in pace. Instead of a new post each time, we’ll be updating this post through the month each time there’s a new release.

May 11th

New Features:

  • Added a toggle in the properties bar for 3rd party integration layers. It adds the ability to resize the area of 3rd party integration layers. Now you can adjust the layer width/height for overlays, donation bars, chat widgets, alert text, and event lists without scaling everything together.

Fixes:

  • Users should no longer be able to end up on a blank editor when logging in. 
  • When using Firefox, we’ll let you know when your webcam can’t be accessed because it’s being used by another program.
  • Studio – Green room guests will be notified if they fail to connect to our servers.
